On Thursday, Tustin got the W thanks in part to Eimesse Essis playing the best football he has all season. Essis rushed for 293 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 7.9 yards per carry, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. That high mark didn't come from nowhere: he has now rushed for 182 or more in the last four games he's played dating back to last season.
Essis and Tustin will be staying on the road on Friday to face off against Western at 7:00 p.m. Essis will face off against Makhai Hayes, the Pioneers' star rusher. With so much talent on the field, fans are surely in for an exciting game. The only thing left to see is who brings home the W.
